Zohran Mamdani I will email you FLACs of the SC3K soundtrack just let me know
we’re about to find out if loving SimCity makes you a better mayor

Mamdani was asked in 2002 by NY Mag what he wanted for Christmas and said SimCity 3000

That's sc2k, which was objectively better than sc3k on every front except trading resources with neighbors. Sc3k was after EA bought maxis and the worst one until they required an Internet connection. He couldn't know that on a Christmas list, though.

This might be a familiar location for some.

I like the concept of no gridlines, but it feels so weird to play without them. It does help show elevation *much* better.

It's not much, but it's #SC3K terrain, now visible during the automated test suite (used to verify that the decompiled code continues to match the original as it's slowly built up). Progress!!

listening to the SC3K soundtrack ama

The SC3K soundtrack was unbelievably good. I've worked on projects where I just want that in the background.

Like the Halo: ODST soundtrack, the timelessness of jazz helps it hit above its weight

…I’ve just realised i’ve been misreading SC3K as “S3K” for the past month and thought you were decompiling Sonic 3 & Knuckles 😭

This opinion is incorrect, sc3k kicked ass, and 4 was solid too. It was 5 that went to hell cause maxis got westwood'd

The Sims is Good, actually

Coming soon to an sc2kfix release near you... alternate terrain colours inspired by SC3K, implemented in #SimCity 2000. #retrogaming #sc2k #maxis

SC3K absolutely deluges you with the Funniest Petitioners who both demand low taxes in a “You’re making our kids cry that mommy and daddy have to give their fast food money to Uncle Sim” but also demand perfect public services

Tron Identity and SC3k also so fucking good

sometimes you gotta bust out the good headphones and the digital walkman and listen to the flac rips of the SC3K soundtrack you got off of a sketchy Russian music forum

SC3k was my jam!!
March 8, 2025 at 12:24 AM
yeah! I honestly prefer the gameplay of SC3K but it's not quite as timeless of a look

The SC3K soundtrack
August 4, 2025 at 1:12 PM
Fuck yesssssssss SC3k

Every cycle of the #SC3K decompiling does another chunk. Here, have a screenshot of what it looks like when it starts another piece. Then, it'll work for ~2 hours, depending on what blockers it finds and has to resolve. Gradually, we're eating through.

SC3K has a spectacular soundtrack, more folks should know

Hate to be the one to point this out but we wouldnt have SC3K or the Sims if EA hadnt bought them. Maxis was running on fumes. Of course EA was a very different company back then.
